Description

Black pastors across America delivered a blistering rebuke against efforts to sanitize Charlie Kirk’s record after his death. From Pastor Jamal Bryant’s rejection of comparing Kirk to Dr. King, to Rev. Marcus Cosby’s reminder that Kirk once suggested lives must be sacrificed for the Second Amendment, to Pastor Wesley’s declaration that death does not redeem a life of hate, their voices were united. Pastor McKissick warned that when leaders play with fire, the vulnerable get burned, and Roland Martin underscored that white supremacy tricks people into mourning its own. Together, their message was clear: Kirk’s death does not redeem his hateful legacy. 🔥 Pastor Jamal Bryant: Don’t compare Charlie Kirk to Dr. King 🔥 Rev.
